Mother from hell, stabs, kills her 4 kids

Police and other security operatives were shocked to behold the scene of the crime after receiving a 911 call from a Memphis apartment complex.

The children’s mother, Shaynthia Gardner, 29, was arrested at the scene and is accused of killing her children. Investigators are trying to determine a motive.

One of the most difficult questions in any investigation always is, why did it occur?” Oldham said, according to CNN affiliate WMC.

A fifth child, a 7-year-old boy, escaped the mayhem, Oldham said.

“He is safe and in a place of protection until next of kin can be notified,” he said.
